Haileyville is a small town in southeastern Oklahoma's Pittsburg County, where PO Box service is the only mail delivery option across its 2.7 square miles. This is a PO Box Only Zone. The post office maintains 359 boxes for 294 households, serving not just the town itself but surrounding areas without carrier delivery. The adoption rate of 1.22 boxes per household shows the post office functions as a regional mail hub for the area.
The town's numbered grid pattern (1st Street through 9th Street) and named avenues suggest an established community laid out during Oklahoma's early 20th century coal mining era. Choctaw Avenue and Seminole Avenue reference the tribal heritage of this region. Rural carrier routes (Route R) handle what limited street delivery exists, primarily for the 360 residential delivery points recorded.
With a population of 722 and a median age of 42.7 years, Haileyville is a working-class community. The median household income of $53,438 sits near the state average, and 72% of residents own their homes (211 of 294 occupied units). Public administration accounts for a notable share of employment, with 44 workers in government jobs. Small business activity is modest: just 7 establishments employing 19 people.
Because this is a PO Box Only Zone, residents don't have the option of street delivery. Mail arrives via rural routes to the post office, where box holders pick up letters and packages. For anyone mailing to Haileyville, the address format requires a PO Box number. General Delivery is available for those without a box.
Numbered grid streets reflect early 20th century town planning, while Choctaw and Seminole Avenues honor the region's Native American heritage.
ZIP Code 74546 has 722 residents and 294 households (average 2.46 persons per household). The median age is 42.7 years, older than the state (37.3) and older than the nation (38.8).
